Thats gonna be nice. The gear drives are cool but can get kinda annoying if you drive alot

i just went with gear drives because it will sound like its blown without the cost. plus 0 room for a supercharger....

josh

i love the pete jackson noisy graer drive

You have made alot of Suspension changes for the better for sure . I gotta say though I do not like that Drivers side control arm . Would it not have been more beneficial for you to change to Rack and Pinion which would then have move the Steering shaft well out of the way of the Upper Control arm . Allowing both control arms to be the same appearance and not have that scary notched look .

yea i thought of running a rack and pinon, but i dont have room for powersteering on the motor. plus where the steering colum comes out of the cab is right where the control arm is. soanyways i would have to run it notched. its no done, im building my headers right now. once they are done and the cab is sitting back on with the steering hokked up again it will be plated plenty strong and chances are they will look identical. the way its setup in my head it will be plenty strong and look good. just gotta get some stuff out of the way so i can build it around it.

i may be wrong, but the only time ive seen rack and pinon it was with power steering. if im wrong let me know. ive known to be wrong.

They do make manual rack and pinions

i just looked them up. no matter how i set it up its going to be getting into my control arm. remeber my whole front cradel is 4 1/2 inchs narrower then stock. i will run into worse problems with the rack and pinon.

the control arms will be plenty strong once i plate them.
